Rumour-mill

I am hearing a very, very bad rumour about one of our ex-players. Recently departed. He's in deeper trouble than he's ever been in before.
Watch this space.

Well, yeah ... pretty obvious isn't it. I won't say what he's alleged to have done though. It ain't good though. I would expect it to break today or tomorrow.

Saints holding a press conference now. Will update you when I know more.
In the meantime - this statement from the club.

St Kilda Football Club can confirm that Victoria Police are investigating allegations made by a woman against Saints player Andrew Lovett, which is reported to have occurred in Melbourne in the early hours of this morning.

The Club is currently gaining a better understanding of these allegations and as a Club, St Kilda is treating the matter very seriously.

At this time, the Club has suspended Andrew Lovett indefinitely. Andrew will not be involved with the Club in any shape or form until a further decision is made.

Ossie, I'm curious as to whether in this situation if Essendon would be contacting your bosses and other TV networks and asking them not to run file footage of Lovett in an Essendon guernsey when they cover this story?

Nope, I haven't heard anything. It would be hard for them to ask it ... it's the only vision we have of him actually playing the game.
Most people have the vision of him on his first day at the Saints anyway so we'll just run a bit of both.

St Kilda have suspended Lovett indefinately - pending the outcome from police investigations.
